Re: [Tinycc-devel] TCC 0.9.17 is out

There are still known bugs with bitfields. Variable size arrays and 
alloca() are not supported. Inline functions are missing (main problem 
when compiling the Linux kernel). So you can compile many user mode 
programs, but it is still lacking some gcc features.
